Focused on their day-to-day operations, industrial SMEs often perceive the transition to the 4.0 paradigm as distant, although it is more accessible than they assume

Spanish SMEs, especially in the industrial sector, have low digitalization penetration and need to invest in technology and change their culture to maintain competitiveness. The Digitalization Boost Plan for SMEs 2021-2025 and European Union funds for digital transformation aim to encourage the adoption of new technologies. SMEs often have a distant perception of Industry 4.0 and make mistakes by thinking it only involves having a website and storing data in the cloud. To unlock the true potential of Industry 4.0, SMEs need a comprehensive combination of technologies and a holistic vision, supported by technology partners and data experts.

The Evolution of Voice Recognition Takes Smart Homes to the Next Level

Voice recognition technologies are advancing in IoT devices, promising to transform the connected home. Since its inception in the 1950s, voice recognition has evolved, achieving notable accuracy by 2018 and accelerating due to the pandemic. By 2023, it is expected that there will be 8 billion digital voice assistants in use, driving a $31.82 billion market by 2025. These systems enable smart home automation beyond device management, incorporating emotion- and context-based interaction, and opening possibilities for new uses.

The challenge is to include SMEs in this process to maintain competitiveness and wine quality.

Is Artificial Intelligence Really That Smart? The Dangers Hidden in AI

Artificial Intelligence (AI) exhibits biases that can be dangerous for society because machines learn from biased data. These biases can have significant social consequences, such as discrimination in hiring and incorrect labeling of images. However, AI is not inherently bad; rather, proper data selection and corrective measures are required to address these biases. It is crucial to have diverse teams in AI development and to work toward responsible AI by applying techniques like explainability and meta-learning.

Sensors and IoT: The Best Partners for Intelligent Water Management

Technological solutions based on data are emerging as crucial to addressing the growing water scarcity.
